McConnell (R-KY) Fooled by Fake Report Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) wrote late last year to the Pentagon with "an unusually credulous query" on behalf of a constituent who saw a news article on Guantanamo Bay prisoners receiving Post 9/11 GI Bill benefits, Wired reports. Wrote McConnell: "I would appreciate your review and response to my constituent's concerns." The article was actually a not-so-subtle parody which even quotes a fake military spokesman: "By allowing the detainees to use the Department of Veterans Affairs, we hope to completely crush their souls with bureaucracy." politicalwire.com/archives/2013/02/20/mcconnell_fooled_by_fake_report.html
